Pretty good story here...

David Ubben Story QUOTE:
"The Telephone Trophy sat inside the trophy case in the lobby. Missouri and Iowa State competed for it annually back in the days of the bygone Big 12, and next to the score commemorating the 2006 game, I spied an asterisk.

I knew why it was there. Missouri fans would have known, too, had they seen it. Three years earlier, Iowa State had beaten the Tigers, but the result came under fire after a phantom holding call the conference later apologized for making."

Who put in the order to install the asterisk?

Who actually installed it?


After Missouri reclaimed possession of the trophy back in 2007, who knew about the, uh, alteration?
